Rinse the potatoes and cut into wedges. Cook the potatoes in boiling salt water for about 10 minutes and drain.
Rinse the parsley, shake dry and chop the leaves. Mix the oil, 1/2 teaspoon of chile powder, parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Place the potato wedges on a baking sheet and sprinkle with the chile oil. Bake for about 10 minutes at 425°F, until golden brown. Rotate the potatoes and bake for 5-10 more minutes.
For the yogurt dip, mix the turmeric, cumin, sour cream, yogurt and 1 pinch of chile powder. Peel the garlic. Squeeze half of a lime. Rinse the chives, shake dry and cut into rolls. Reserve 1 teaspoon of the chives for the garnish. Mix the remaining chives into the yogurt. Press the garlic into the yogurt and season with lime juice, salt and pepper. Place in a bowl and sprinkle with the remaining chives.
For the tomato dip, mix the ketchup, horseradish and mayonnaise. Season with lemon juice, salt and cayenne pepper. Rinse the tomatoes, pat dry, chop and sprinkle over the dip.
Remove the potatoes from the oven. Serve immediately with the dips.
